This is the exact thing I've been thinking all the time: Something's not totally right here: Let's at least slow down to better assess the situation. Everything works better in slo-mo. My human brain would then have much better time to evaluate the scene. This would definitely also hold for the sensors and processing systems for an autonomous vehicle.
